Ep 11 - Tim Minchin
Today we are interviewing Tim Minchin - comedian, musician, actor, songwriter and multi-talented genius. He’s played sold out comedy shows at the Sydney Opera House, his songs have gone mega-viral a bunch of times, he wrote the every award-winning musical Mathilda and we feel he should leave some of the success for everyone else.
Alongside this he’s been a proud skeptic, atheist and humanist who, through his art and public comment, engages deeply with why we are here, and how we should live.
What you’ll get.
What you’ll find in this conversation is:
a brilliant discussion of why meaning is the most important thing in the Universe
why Tim thinks the Universe is meaningless
a moving description of the power of ritual
and some very personal insights into the cost of fame
You’ll also find Tim engaging with the positive sides of spirituality and religion more than we've ever heard from him in the past.
